 Customize

At the core of all Michelle Kane actions is the ability to adjust and tweak them to fit your specific needs perfectly. They were developed so that you’ll have full control over all aspects of the action components. After playing an action, simply toggle open the action folder in the layers palette and adjust each individual layer’s opacity, blending mode, or visibility From light, contrast, clarity, color, and tone, you have the power to adjust as necessary to fine tune each action to your personal needs.

The ultimate tool for artistic control comes through the use of the layer masks built into each action. Every action finishes playing with either a black or white layer mask attached in the layers palette. White layer masks allow you to cover up a portion of the action’s effect, while black layer masks allow you to selectively add in the effect where you want and to the degree that you want. This is powerful contro

Combine

You can achieve endless looks for your photos by combining multiple actions into one edit without ever having to flatten your layers as you go. Each action plays seamlessly on top of the previous action, allowing you to stack actions and effects to build a truly custom look. If later you decide to eliminate a previously played action, it’s as simple as dragging that action folder from the layers palette to the trashcan.
